My period is 5 days late how long should i wait before going into the doctor to get a blood pregnancy test?

Home test first: I would consider a home pregnancy test prior to going to the doctor for a blood draw. The home tests are pretty accurate. If you conceived more than about 14 days ago, either method of testing should be positive by now.
